Memo Akten. He is a Turkish artist, musician, researcher, and computer scientist based in Los Angeles.
His work involves using code to create interdisciplinary pieces that explore the relationships between ecology, technology, science, and spirituality.
One of his recent works focuses on the theme of "Waves", encompassing ocean waves, sound waves, quantum field waves, and social and political waves. The work also delves into waves in the Earth's crust.
Inspired by Akten's work, I chose the word "layers" as it relates to various aspects of life, such as layers in the skin, human body, rock formations, earth layers and also some layers that I create using editing and design software.
Furthermore, I created my own interpretation of "layers" using a technological model, which also connects back to Akten's works.
